The Year 2029

I have been adding individual life policies to tam and have been setting the exp date 30 years ahead when the policy expires.

Had to call tam and find out why anything after 2029 kept setting back to 1929.
They said its a windows xp issue and microsoft has to fix it and probably wont since they dont want to support windows xp anymore.  They said it might work on vista or 7.

Edit: just tried it in Windows Vista and it doesnt work on Vista either dont have a 7 machine with Tam so cant try that yet.
